White object with blue aurora around it located near Henderson Nevada Airport

A white elongated Ball with blue outlines located just above Henderson Nevada Airport, left at incredible speed moving west towards california, height was maybe 5000 to 8000 ft and the size of your thumbnail when hand is extended. When I contacted the local newspaper at 1:00 a.m. just after the event as stated above, I received an email back 37 minutes later trying to explain this by sending me an article but the acticle was dated 3 months ago and the acticle stated the object was moving west to east and the e-mail was from myself but had the newspaper advertisements as such. The object I saw moved east to west, are the newspapers also are imbeded in the cover up or are they lazy and dont care?
